You can indeed make an image of an audio CD, although it's not an ISO9660
image as there's no filesystem as such on an audio CD. What you have
instead is something known as a "TOC", or "Table of Contents" file which is
written out as ASCII text.  I suspect K3B has created a raw image for you,
but either not written out the TOC or you've not understood its
significance.

I can see where you are trying to go, but I don't think you're going to
find a solution that's very well supported by media players.  Most of us
create a directory for each CD then put the transcoded audio files, plus
any cover art images, playlists, etc. in there.
